White Dove: September 2009
http://ibwhitedove.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Monday, September 7, 2009. I love this photo of my daughter Leith with her children. It was taken when Georgia was just one day old. And big sister Zoe, 6 going on 7. Georgia is now 15 months, a happy contented toddler. With lots to say.and big smiles for everyone she meets. Zoe, now a grown up seven, wonders what happened to the life.
